Good morning and welcome to my blog. Here it is Wednesday already, I have one son on a 3 week holiday break studying for exams and my other is away at Rowing camp for a week. I know it's meant to be Spring here in New Zealand but the temperature really dropped on Sunday from 14c to 8c so I really hope Ryan doesn't fall out of the boat this week as it will be pretty cold and they don't wear wet-suits for rowing or Life Jackets for that matter.
Congratulations to our winner this week and our top 3 cards great work everyone and it was great to see that there were more entries this week.
This week we have another lovely sketch by Sally, it's very easy and really shows off your beautiful design papers.
Sketch #69
Here's a quick look at my cards inside and out.

Love your happy colors. The dp works so well with your focal umbrella filled with the beautifully colored flowers. Thanks for playing at the Mod Squad Challenge this week.
Gorgeous card Kathy. Hope you are doing well.

WOW- another gorgeous card. The color is just stunning. The DP with those flowers is just a perfect match. Love that pearl butterfly. Hope your son stays dry and warm, and hope you get to sneak a little time in with your other son....I'm sure he finds the time to eat. Anyway you get some time at that age.

This card is simply stunning Kathie. I love those gorgeous colors and that image is REALLY wonderful! I rarely use flowers on my cards but this card makes me rethink using them. So, so pretty. I hope Ryan was warm enough. Thinking about you and your future trip to London. I wish I were going!
A fabulous card, such lovely warm colours.
Thank you for joining us at Ooh La La Creations.
